Hence, the present invention generates optical pulses uniformly over a wide current range, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the element.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method for the fabrication of a spot-size converter with a lateral-tapered waveguide (or an active layer), which utilizes a mask during a lithographic process wherein the mask has a pad that can absorb strain to be occurred during forming a lateral-tapered waveguide pattern at its distal end and the lateral-tapered waveguide is fabricated by forming the distal end on the order of about 0.6 &mgr;m in width followed by forming the lateral-tapered waveguide on the order of 0.1 &mgr;m using an wet etching. Thus, it is possible to reduce a fabrication cost because it is free from a high-resolution electron beam lithography and a stepper, and hence enhance a reproducibility of the lateral-tapered waveguide because it is free from an excessive wet etching during the use of a contact exposure equipment. Further, it is possible to integrate the spot-size converter fabricated by the above with an optical device, resulting in an increased position adjustment and reproducibility of the spot-size converter, which in turn, leads to increase in yield for the optical device.

    摘要: Disclosed is a fabricating method of a GaAs substrate having a V-shaped groove in a higher density, that is a double density, the method comprising the steps of forming a Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer on a main surface of the GaAs substrate; patterning the Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer using a photo-lithography to form a patterned Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer having a minimum width; wet-etching the GaAs substrate using the patterned Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer as a mask, so as to form (111) and (100) surfaces of the GaAs substrate beneath the patterned Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 ; selectively growing a GaAs film on the GaAs substrate etched thus using the patterned Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer as a mask so as to form the GaAs film with two (111) facets only on a (100) surface of the GaAs substrate; and removing the Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer. The V-shaped grooves can be formed on a GaAs substrate utilizing a difference of growth rate caused by surface orientation of the substrate, and therefore the grooves can be formed in double density.

    摘要: A crystal growth method for a compound semiconductor is capable of forming a plurality of quantum wells (formed of a barrier layer having a large energy band gap and an active layer having a small energy band gap) on the compound semiconductor substrate. After etching a V-shaped groove having a (111) surface with a predetermined angle .theta.1 with respect to the (100) surface on the GaAs semiconductor substrate, the substrate is further etched by a hydrochloric solution and a solution of H.sub.2 SO.sub.4 :H.sub.2 O.sub.2 :H.sub.2 O=20:1 to cause the V-shaped groove walls to become a non-(111) surface having a lower predetermined slope angle .theta.2. The quantum wells then grown in the bottom of the V-shaped groove will be effectively disconnected from simultaneous growths on the side walls of the groove thus giving rise to closely controlled multi-dimensional quantum well structures.
